ROTC Education

For some, the military is merely a job; for others it is a way of life. For those who know this early on in life, the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) can be a place to grow and excel. The ROTC was designed to cultivate and motivate strong leaders in all branches of the armed forces at the high school and college level. At graduation, cadets will enter their branches officially as officers and leaders in their field, learning skills that they can apply for life.

Benefits

There are other benefits to joining up through ROTC-officers must be college-educated, and the armed forces can help. From high school through enlistment, there are tuition assistance and scholarship options available.

High School

If you are still planning for college, the options are vast, ranging from two- and three-year to even full ride scholarships, divvied up by grades and merit. In many cases, students are offered living stipends for books and necessities in addition to tuition fees.

College

If you are already in college when you hear the ROTC calling, it's not too late for financial aid. While the full ride is no longer an option, you can still qualify for up to four years (on a five-year plan) of tuition assistance upon meeting the physical standards, GPA, and aptitude test scores requisite of joining the ROTC.

Enlisted

Are you an enlisted service member hoping to move upward in your military career? It's never too late to earn your commission, and most ROTC branches can help. Programs like the Army's Green to Gold plan help active duty personnel find the time and the financial aid to complete a bachelor's degree and make the transition from enlisted to officer.
